Setting time frame in dashboard search

[mab17]

I have saved a search in a dashboard and have it set to a specific data and time range. However, because I want the search to update the data pulled in every time I go onto the dashboard the way the time is set up currently will be an issue. I am trying to make it show from 18:00 the previous day to 06:00 of the current day. I want it to run based on the day that I am running the search without having to change the time frame everyday. Can anybody give me insight on how to do this?

"Custom Time Range" >> "Advanced search language"

Earliest: -1d@d+6h

Latest: -1d@d+18h

In search terms that is "one day ago, snap to day, plus **N* hours*".

Thank you so much!

The above illustrates how to set the range for an interactive search (because it also displays the resultant calculated times), but the search period syntax is identical for a saved search administered through the manager.
